When malice chokes the river of truth,
When despair outcries the song of hope,
When the heavens weep out in agony,
When existence is stifled,
When the earth breathes and drinks fear,
When virtues stand all but exterminated,
When incompetence is worshipped,
When beauty is desecrated,
When honesty is chided,
When honour sells for a dime,
When gods transform into demons,
When protectors turn into molestors,
When creators commit suicide,
When the earth issues the clarion call.
The Lady of Light steps forth.
A jet of light emanates from her brow.
Thin but bright.
Fragile but unyielding.
Frail but proud.
Tender but sturdy.
Amongst the good, are born the heroes, the guardians - the Sons of the Light.
Quiet and grim, Tall and agile, Stern but gentle, Dutiful and diligent, Alchemists and wizards, they feed upon the despair, the falsehood, the malice, the vices, the fear, the poison and perish unsung, unthanked.
The earth is cleansed. The earth forgets.
The Wheel turns. Existence continues.
Period.
